1886 VIM. Snider owned a tract of land on which
he desired to locate village. The plat was not
executed as the statute required, and was not
good as a statutory dedication. The plat was
founded erroneous description of the land
and this error materially changed the dimen-
sions and location of the streets and alleys, and
the user by the public did not correspond with
the streets and alleys as designated on the plat.
AS the attempted statutory dedication was in
valid the location and dimensions of the streets
and alleys we're fixed by user which began as
early as 1910, and as SO fixed they must be re-
garded as now existing. The surveyor in 1879
was not called upon Ito establish, relocate or

Sonnet.

Oh, Mystic Art, Spread wide thy charms
To lure thy devotees to paradise, and strike
The clouds responsive, In each heart. as like,
When did Apollo with his Tyre, needed arms.
Oercome the hearts OF beasts and men with song
And rouse that ancient spirit of knights of old
That sought by chivalry, and barriers felled
To love of lady fair-and raise throng
Of knights to battle for thy cause; sight.
To thrill each heart of pensive maid with zeal.
And with refexive strength, renew the toll;
And tune each muse to render songs to delight.
While millions sing the glad refrains and feel
That he of lore in mystic search revealed to light
Is monarch of all men III earth's eterne turmoil.

Effort to Set Aside a Foreclosure.

CHICAGO. Jan. 2s-A bill to set aside the
foreclosure sale Of the Plymouth, Kankakee &
Pacific railroad, which line has long been known
as part of the Indiana, Illinois & Iowa road,
was filed here day in the federal Circuit Court
by Robert B. Ennis and others. They ask that
the sale be declared void, and that the property,
which is worth at least $500 900, be re-
sold, this time for the benefit of
all the bondholders according the bill. The
foreclosure was made June II, 1877, under a
mortgage for So, 600,0 900. Notwithstanding that
only 1886, 045 was due. the road was acquired for
81. 900 by j. G. Cushman. He claimed to be
acting for the bondholders, but failed to
perfect the sale until February, 1881.
Then he. in company with j. D. Harvey and
Frank P. Hawkins. who, in the meantime.
bought up majority of the bonds for almost
nothing, had the sale confirmed. The road was
Immediately turned oyer to the newly organized
Indiana, Illinois & Iowa line, OF which Harvey
was president The petitioners claim to be able
now to prove that the conveyance was accepted
from Cushman, with full knowledge of how he
secured possession.

There is considerable speculation in railroad
circles over the announcement that the great
Cnlcaso nrm or Armour 81 20. has contract
with the Pennsylvania Company to carry dressed
beef frem Chicago to New York and Philadel-
phla; that the contract has more than four
years yet to run, and that it involves several
millions Of dollars. The questions to be decided
are whether the interstate bill will
impair the validity of this contract; whether the
existence OF such contract will prevent the
Pennsylvania Company from charging higher
rates to other shippers, and whether merchants
can make long contracts with railroads before
the act that will practically nullify such con-
tract shall become law.

An attempt to get the freightagent of the east
bound lines out of In dianapols together, yester-
day, was failure. Notwithstanding the fact that
this was the third attempt in the present week,
there was no quorum. Competitors of the c., St
L. & P. and of the Wabash aleee that these two
roads are cutting rates. and they demand that
the G., st. L. & P. and the Wabash show their
colors. If they are not cutting rates, they want
the agents to renew their pledge to strictly
maintain rates. This is all very good, but at
no time for two years past have rates in all
directions, both freight and passenger, been
| more unsettled than at the present time. Agents
who are prone to cuts rates have taken the
weakness in the pools or talked-of weakness, as
being license to renew rate wars.
The railway mail service is meeting with con-
siderable difficulty in finding new appointees
able or willing to cope with the work. The

| they resign in disgust to seek easier and more
fruitful occupations. The position if the appli-
| cant fulfill the requirements of the service,
becomes easy to a certain degree only after a
| long period of hard study and application. 1t is
| anything but sinecure. To reach the top OF

of reasonably good education at the start
